| so i went to practice and didn't die of dehydration, thank God. i did almost die of just pure exhaustion...but i'll get over it. there was a senior dinner tonight for the ppl on the team and well, being a senior, i went. there was so much food....lasagna, salad, fruit, crackers, dips, brownies, pudding, cobblers, 2 cakes and it was a freaking buffet. so i ate...tried to be good about size and whatnot...and then all the girls left to get dessert and my friend who knows about me being ana was like "are you going" (as a command, not really a question) and i was like "..yea, i'll go" so i went..and ate dessert. and then i started to feel really sick. i chugged a bottle of water and then excused myself to the bathroom as usual. shoved my fingers down my throat until i was sure that i got the majority of it out, wiped the tears off my cheeks and then rejoined the party.
sooo...once again, for fear of dying at xc practice, i drank some gatorade tonight to put back in some of those electrolytes. but at this point, i'm prolly just boring y'all to death.
thanks for the comments...y'all are so sweet. seriously. and in reference to a comment from someone, i am much more open with the people i come in contact with on xanga than i am with some of my close friends. due to a few bad friendships, i've really grown fearful of trusting other people, period. not even in regards to me being ana/mia. the few friends who did know about me being ana/mia walked out. i can't help but be afraid to share this with someone else because they'll either a. freak out and tell someone b. decide i'm too much of a hassle and leave me c. not know what to say b/c they just don't understand it. there really is no middle line. it really kinda stinks whatever way it goes.....nothing gets better.
but, i'm not sure i even want that. i don't know what the crap i want anymore. i want to be heard....to be accepted....to feel wanted and loved.....to make improvements.....to be able to eventually overcome...but i'm not ready for that yet. i still get a high when i know that i have rid my body of the disgusting thing that people call "food." i laugh when really, my heart is being pierced with words of criticism from my dad...my coach...my friend... i find joy in feeling dizzy...faint...and exhausted...because i know that i'm getting skinny. as much as i have tried to "recover" in the past, ana/mia are a part of me. i can't change my thinking process overnight. people don't understand that shoving food in my face or begging me to eat really are useless. until i decide that i am ready to move on...to grow up....to take care of myself...then i guess i will continue to be a part...of this beautiful suicide. |
